Nudes are a practical choice for the season, so don’t skimp on sexiness. Yes, simple nude pumps lengthen your legs, but they’re kind of boring. Spice things up with these seductive sandals! They’ll draw you just the right kind of attention – the respectful but intrigued kind. Tans really are a must before slipping these on. Everyone suddenly seems to be vitamin D deficient these days, so you get two birds with one stone. A little tasteful nudity never hurt anyone.
